Outgoing Indian High Commissioner to Bangladesh Vikram Kumar Doraiswami has said India wants Bangladesh to be happy, prosperous and successful in its democratic journey.
“Your democracy is for you (Bangladeshis) to develop,” he told reporters at National Martyrs’ Memorial in Savar on Saturday, reports UNB.
He visited the memorial and paid tribute to those who made the ultimate sacrifice during the Liberation War of 1971.
He observed a minute-long silence and signed the visitors’ book there after placing the wreath.
Doraiswami, who has been appointed as High Commissioner of India to the United Kingdom, is scheduled to leave Bangladesh on Sunday.
Earlier at a farewell reception on Thursday evening, Doraiswami said Bangladesh-India relationship is like a “train” and that train must keep moving to do more great things together.
